Snoop Dogg

Legendary rapper Snoop Dogg has melted hearts across the world after offering to adopt an abandoned doggo who was named after him.

The Staffordshire Bull Terrier, named Snoop, was left isolated in Stoke-On-Trent and was caught on CCTV after being cruelly deserted by the couple.

The poor little pet attempted to climb back into his owner's car but didn't succeed, and the heartbreaking footage caught the attention of Snoop Dogg himself.

He said he simply can't stand by, telling the Daily Star that there's "always room for another dog in Casa de Snoop."

The 47-year-old commented that;

"If he really needed a home then he has one with us. But I don’t think there is going to be any shortage of loving homes after all the exposure he has got."

The pooch could end up living in the Doggfather's Los Angeles mansion after the RSPCA shared the footage.

The Inspector of the RSPCA, Natalie Perehovsky, spoke to Good Morning Britain last week about the footage of the couple who unclipped his lead and ran away:

"This is heartbreaking, it’s the way he runs after the owner — he clearly loved who was there. He was obviously distressed," she commented on the ruthlessness of some owners.

She said: "I don’t know what was going through their mind when they did that. It could be the expense, it could be family changes, there’s hundreds of reasons."

"But there’s places that help people, you can take him to charities or dog homes. There’s no excuse."

Fair play Snoop, he even donates money to dog charities and has his own French Bulldog.

Adorable.

And you better believe that the 47-year-old accepted the award in the most Snoop way possible.

In his speech, he was sure to thank those who have helped him along the way.

But he, of course, couldn't forget to thank himself – G'wan, Snoop – we are all about that self-love.

In his thanks to himself, he started: “Last but not least, I want to thank me for believing in me.”

"I want to thank me for doing all this hard work, I want to thank me for having no days off, I want to thank me for never quitting, I want to thank me for always being a giver and trying to give more than I receive.”

“I want to thank me for trying to do more rights than wrong, I want to thank me for just being me at all times,” he added.

And for the punchline, he finished with: “Snoop Dogg, you a bad motherf*cker.”

At the ceremony, Snoop was joined by his wife, Shante Broadus, parents and two of his children, 20-year-old, Julian and 19-year-old, Cori. 

Pharrell Williams also came out to support the rapper and his old friend.

The pair gave each other a big old bear hug before posing together on the red carpet – it's all about that bromance.

Well done Snoop and never change your style of acceptance speeches – PURE GOLD.

While others were ringing in the New Year, some prankster was celebrating the legalisation of Marijuana in California.

Over the course of New Year’s Eve into New Year ’s Day, someone trespassed down to the iconic Hollywood sign and changed it to Hollyweed.

The law was passed to legalise recreational use of the drug on November 8.

A surveillance video is currently being checked to determine the identity of the man according to TMZ.

The man altered the sign using a tarp to change the O’s to E’s and inserted white boards to complete the change.

This is the second time the famous Hollywood sign has been was vandalized. The last time was January 1, 1976.

Snoop Dogg was clearly delighted with the stunt.

Great British Bake Off is our ultimate comfort viewing, and we love nothing more than re-run sessions when we're gripped by Sunday Night Fear.

And it sounds like Snoop Dogg is on the very same page as the rest of the viewing public.

While we wouldn't generally associate teacups and elaborate bakes with the Drop It Like It's Hot rapper, it seems we have a lot to learn about good ol' Snoop.

Speaking to the Star on Sunday, the 44-year-old revealed that he's a massive GBBO fan, and even went on to insist that the British show was one 'one of the best' on TV.

Offering his two cents into the dynamic which exists between Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry, Snoop gushed: "The guy is cool but it’s all about my home girl Mary. You know she is the boss."

While fan-girling all over the most wholesome show on the box, it seems Snoop suddenly realised his street cred was at risk, and did his best to rein himself back in.

"You know, I've been known to do a little baking in my time," he admitted before adding: "I guess you could say my speciality was brownies – just maybe not the kind Mary Berry is used to."

Oh Snoop, you're too slick for us.

Getting to the front row at a concert obviously has some major perks but as some dedicated Snoop Dogg fans learned over the weekend, it can also be pretty damn dangerous.

42 concertgoers were injured on Friday night at a joint Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa concert in New Jersey when the barrier blocking the crowd from the stage collapsed unexpectedly.

According to the Digital Spy, one person suffered serious upper-body injuries as a result of the fall, but is now in a stable condition in hospital.  Others received treatment for broken bones.

 

Yahoo! Music has reported that the collapse happened as the rappers were gesturing fans to move towards the stage.

Videos from the night which have since appeared online show a sea of people fall forward onto the concrete in front of the stage.  The performers were then quickly escorted away by security.

Both Snoop and Wiz have since wished fans a speedy recovery on Twitter.  Snoop Dogg wrote: “Prayers out to my fans.  Wishn u all a quick recovery.  Love” (sic).  While Wiz Khalifa said: “Hope everyone from last night is alright.  That sh*t was crazy.”

Because Snoop's Xbox Live was down, he decided to narrate Planet Earth, or what he likes to call, "Plizzanet Earth."

The contrast between Snoop's voice and David Attenborough's voice is just too much to handle, and SD has a brilliant way of telling you what's going on.

Watch, listen, and be merry, because this is what the Internet was made for.

Uh-oh, it looks like Snoop Dogg has got himself into a bit of trouble with Italian police.

The rapper was apparently stopped by financial police in southern Italy while he was carrying almost €400,000 in cash.

That is nearly 40 times the amount you can take over the border without declaring it to Custom officials.

Snoop is currently touring Europe following the release of his album Bush. His lawyer Andrea Parisi said that he will have to pay a fine, report The Guardian. Parisi then told the press this weekend:

“The money came from concerts he had performed around Europe. There was no crime; it was just an administrative infraction.”

Snoop, real name Calvin Broadus , was given back half of the money while the other half was being held by authorities in Italy. They will keep it until the amount of the fine due to be paid is decided on, Snoop’s lawyer explained.

This isn’t the first during his recent tour this he has had some run-ins with the law. Only last week while in Sweden he claimed he had been racial profiled by authorities when they stopped him on suspicions of drug use.

The rapper was questioned and tested for suspected drug use, but the results will not be available for some time.

Back in 2012 he got himself banned from entering Norway for two years after he was found in possession with 8 grams of marijuana.

Who knew Snoop Dogg could be so sentimental? Not us, that's for sure!

Well, how wrong were we?

The Drop It Like It's Hot singer recently welcomed his very first grandson into his life and the 43-year-old rapper couldn't wait to share the good news with everyone.

Uploading numerous family shots, the performer, most recently in the headlines for his bizarre feud with Iggy Azalea, seemed overjoyed at the prospect of becoming a grandad.

His son Corde and daughter-in-law Jessica welcomed adorable baby son Zion into the world this week and it looks like the entire family can't get enough of the little boy!

Posting the shots to Instagram, the proud grandad wrote: "Zion, you have a lot of love waiting on u grandson!"

Aw, we're melting!

So while Iggy Azalea and Snoop appear to have put their ‘beef’ to bed, it served as an inspiration for one of the best Halloween costumes of the year.

If you will recall, among the tirade of nasty comments Snoop made about Iggy was one in which he compared her to a character from the movie White Chicks.

The rapper wrote at the time: “So we just gonna ignore the fact that Iggy look like Marlon from White Chicks?”

Can you hazard a guess at what Iggy went as last night for Halloween?

That’s right, you guessed it!

Showing herself to be a great sport altogether, Iggy donned a White Chicks costume, complete with creepy mask.

Hilarious!

In an epic video montage, the Fancy singer shakes her stuff to Vanessa Carlton’s A Thousand Miles, with her post caption reading: “Bye haterz”.

 

A video posted by Iggy Azalea (@thenewclassic) on

Her showbiz pals were just as amused as us, it seems, with Demi Lovato posting a photo of herself with Jennifer Lopez and Iggy, writing: “Me, @jlo & @thenewclassic [Iggy] who had me dying tonight with that costume.”

Iggy, you are a legend.

The Iggy Azalea divorce debacle just took a nasty turn.

Last week it was revealed that the singer’s former manager, Jefe Wine, was planning on bringing divorce proceedings against her, and now Iggy has revealed that extent of drama that’s going on behind-the-scenes.

Taking to her Twitter this evening, the Work singer blasted Wine and his lawyer, who has supposedly threatened to tell the media that she gave him an STD.

Well, Jefe, she beat you to it on that front.

In a series of tweets, Iggy revealed all, writing: “My lawyer agreed to be served “divorce” papers but they want to hire someone to serve me in person, probably so it can be another TMZ story.”

“I was also told yesterday via his lawyer if I do not settle out of court, they will go to the press and say I gave him an STD, what’s next?” she continued.

Alarmingly, the 24-year-old added: “I’ve avoided Texas entirely for the last five years. When I do go now, I have a police escort and two armed bodyguards, evidently for good reason.”

While the drama is clearly taking its toll on the singer – no thanks to Snoop Dogg for mocking her on social media – Iggy admitted that since details of Jefe’s claims became public, she has received a lot of “support”.

Let’s hope next week is a better one for Iggy!

It looks like we have another celebrity feud on our hands.

This time, it’s Snoop Dogg and Iggy Azalea who are taking swipes at each other – why can’t we all just get along?

Snoop kicked things off by sharing the meme below to Instagram that carried the caption: “Iggy Azalea no makeup”.

Iggy wasn’t best pleased when she found out about the Drop It Like It’s Hot rapper’s post, and immediately hit back at him.

The Fancy singer publicly blasted Snoop on her Twitter, writing: “Why would you post such a mean pic on Insta when you send your bodyguards to ask me for pictures every time we are at shows?”

“I’m disappointed you’d be such an ass for no reason,” she added.

Could it be that Snoop is jealous of Iggy’s impressive six nominations at the American Music Awards?

Either way, we think she put him in his place.

It’s been a drama-filled few weeks for poor Iggy, with her former manager claiming that the pair were married and that he was planning to cash in when he brought divorce proceedings against her.

The Australian singer went on to dismiss the story as false.

Guys, can't we just be nice to each other?
